2022 Thanksgiving-related baseball card giveaway!!!

eastbayak · 11-23-2022, 01:14 AM

Short and simple, I have a lot to be thankful for in life.

For that reason, I wanted to pay it forward by gifting some self-created baseball "packs" to 5 random members.

To enter this giveaway, simply share something (or some things) that you're thankful for. It doesn't necessarily need to be card/hobby-related either.

Also, one additional entry will go to each member with any children. To qualify for the bonus entry, have one of your children write on a piece of paper:

1. Something they're thankful for
2. First name (initial is fine too)
3. Age
4. Your BO member name
5. Date

Then post the picture in this thread along with your own entry.

Deadline for this giveaway is 11/23/22 at 9:00PM PST.

Cheers!

I'm thankful for the Orioles being good again, and that my immediate family (2 parents and 7 siblings) has been healthy since the onset of covid.

I am thankful for 4 wonderful children & a smokin' hot wife!

I'm grateful for people who do the right thing, even when its hard -- such as eBay sellers that honor the auction format, even if a sale doesn't go their way!

I’m thankful that my wife still “tolerates” that I spend a small amount of (my own) money on cardboard pictures of men playing baseball. (…and beer)

I’m also thankful for 2022 Topps Update - the first worthwhile product I can afford to rip in 3 years.

Nowitzki · 11-23-2022, 04:52 PM

Grateful to be able to work at home and take care of my dogs lol

I’m thankful for those who can read the rules of a giveaway….

I kid, I kid. Seriously though, nice gesture OP.

If I win, please give my prize to one of the children who enter this contest and do not win on their own.
